The final monsters have arrived. And they are...

Atari and developer Pipeworks are hard at work on Godzilla: Unleashed, the next installment in the giant-sized melee brawling franchise, for Wii. To celebrate the game's impending release, we're working with the companies to bring readers weekly creature reveals. Every week, we'll profile a handful of the monsters included in the multiplayer-enhanced fighter along with new screens and even movie renders.

MechaGodzilla:

Mecha

Mechagodzilla 2 was directly inspired by the Vortaak's Mechagodzilla. GDF weapons designers saw that a heavily-armored combatant who blended ranged firepower and heavy melee attacks at the cost of some mobility could be a very effective way to hold back monster attacks on major cities. Although they could not duplicate the space titanium alloy used in the original, the GDF was able to create an armor composite which resisted bite and claw attacks to a miraculous degree - as well as absorbing a significant portion of the heat and radiation weapon attacks used by many of Earth's monsters. This focus on defense before offense proved to be a powerful mixture, and Mechagodzilla 2 remains a staple of the GDF's anti-monster force.

Godzilla '54

Godzilla '54

The original king of the monsters, this towering behemoth was the first post-war nuclear-fueled monster unleashed upon the world. Godzilla '54's nuclear-powered body was so powerful that each footprint he left was a crater seeping with lethal radiation. The infamous day that Godzilla rose from the sea to conquer Tokyo will be remembered as the beginning of the humanity's epic struggle against the reign of giant monsters.

Godzilla 90s

Godzilla 90s

Born of a failed attempt by aliens from the future to destroy Godzilla in the past, Godzilla '90s is a larger, stronger version of his original form. This "reborn" version of the original mutated Godzillasaurus ravaged an unprepared human populace with a renewed thirst for destruction. Godzilla '90s' reemergence as a monster superpower reminded all those standing in his way that the "King of the monsters" had returned.

SpaceGodzilla

SpaceGodzilla

SpaceGodzilla is a malevolent fusion of Godzilla's DNA and an unknown collection of extra-terrestrial minerals and energies. SpaceGodzilla has an unknown potential for psychic abilities, including telekinesis, telepathy, levitation, mind control, and the manipulation of many basic elements. SpaceGodzilla can temper crystal towers from the earth around him, which he uses to magnify and focus his psychic energies. SpaceGodzilla's greatest weapon is the human-level intelligence that he wields, despite his gargantuan frame. This makes him a tremendous potential threat to all humanity and all of the earth. SpaceGodzilla has attacked Earth only twice before - once as a free agent and once as an ally of the Vortaak. But his thirst for power knows no allegiance, and needs none.
